[name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_m]Khalil[/name_m] Gibran’s works! But I kinda of prefer [name_m]Jamil[/name_m] as a name.

I’d rank them
[name_m]Jamil[/name_m]
[name_m]Khalil[/name_m]
[name_m]Amil[/name_m]
[name_m]Emil[/name_m]

[name_m]Amil[/name_m] is my favourite, closely followed by [name_m]Khalil[/name_m].
[name_m]Jamil[/name_m] is my least favourite.

[name_m]Emil[/name_m] is so handsome! My favorite European-style name for boys.
[name_m]Amil[/name_m] is also nice.

Thanks for ranking! It looks.like a mixed bag of favorites and second favorites :slight_smile:

[name_m]Emil[/name_m] sounds like an old-man name to my (white, aglophone, American) ears. The other three options sound much fresher. I’d rank them, best to worst:

[name_m]Khalil[/name_m]
[name_m]Jamil[/name_m]
[name_m]Amil[/name_m]
[name_m]Emil[/name_m]

I voted for [name_m]Khalil[/name_m]. I like this name and actually know someone named [name_m]Khalil[/name_m]. Totally usable, too!

I voted for [name_m]Amil[/name_m], but if the poll were multiple choice, I would have also selected [name_m]Emil[/name_m]. Both are excelent names.

Third choice: [name_m]Jamil[/name_m]

Last choice: [name_m]Khalil[/name_m]

Thanks for all of your comments! It looks like [name_m]Emil[/name_m] got first followed by [name_m]Khalil[/name_m], [name_m]Amil[/name_m], and [name_m]Jamil[/name_m]. This let’s me know others opinions. I really do love [name_m]Khalil[/name_m] Gibran s work, and my partner and I wanted to know it it was usable. All names will still be considered.
